Re: Help Needed, But not Bad lol.

I am rubbish at imagining how big your tank is - so please someone correct me if I try to overstock this guys tank with ideas! Lol,

Personally I like glowlights, and Normans Lampeyes (not the red eye tetra as they are often confused with). I am a firm believer in Guppies also

I think more corys would be good. Are you going to cycle your tank with these fish, or are you doing a fishless cycle?

I wouldn't do a betta because they don't go well with a lot of fish. I would try some guppies, an Otocinclus Catfish, and 3 planties. I have 3 planties and a Otocinclus in a 10 gallon aquarium, and they are great, and they won't grow larger than 2 inches. Also they are very hardy fish.
